Ward, P.; Sprevak, D.; Boreham, C. – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2002
This note, which is based on a final year project for a BSC degree, presents an investigation on the Olympic decathlon. It shows that the existing non-linear transformation which is used to assign points to athletes' performance gives practically identical results to that of a simpler linear one. In addition, the paper presents evidence to support…
